After 350 metres turn right at range entrance with flagpole.(GR 860817) After approx 4 Km (you are now on top of the Purbeck Hills) turn right (GR SY 888812) into the viewing area/car park. The Tyneham car park has aN hoNesty box for chargiNg Toilets are available 100 metres east of the Tyneham car park The fieldtrip area is covered by BGS Sheet No 329 – Bournemouth and OS Landranger45 Sheet 195 – Bournemouth, Purbeck and surrounding area 1 Welcome to this beautiful part of the Dorset coast which in any weather shows Dorset geology and scenery at its finest. If you haven’t been here before you will learn a lot about the geological setting of Dorset from about 140 Ma years ago to the more recent past. If this is a revisit, you are sure to add to your knowledge and perspective. SAFETY This locality is freely accessible to the public and is enjoyed by thousands of visitors every year, but as with any coastal exposure of cliffs and rocks, there are numerous hazards to be aware of and precautions that can minimise the risk of injury that could curtail your enjoyment of your visit. Specifically: - Sea Cliffs are liable to rock falls at any time, avoid standing beneath overhangs and generally keep away from the base of the cliffs. Wear a hard hat at all times on the beach, it will protect your head from small rock falls. Rock hopping over pebbles or boulders presents trip or slip hazards, avoid wet surfaces particularly if covered by sea weed. Within the army ranges there is a SPECIAL HAZARD from live shells. Obey all notices that denote restricted access to the range walks and DO NOT TOUCH any ordinance you may come across. Do Not dig or hammer in the cliffs or beach for the same reason. Hammers are banned from Mupe and Worbarrow bays. Generally the use of hammers in the cove is discouraged, but there are ample specimens of all rock types on the foreshore that can be reduced in size with care and consideration for other people. You are advised to wear goggles when doing so. High Tide = 1240 BASIC ITINERARY PoviNgtoN Hill (SY 888811). Following a brief introduction we shall consider the geological structure to the south and west where we can see the Jurassic beds forming the Weymouth Anticline. Looking north we can see the Tertiary formation of the River Frome Syncline lying in the Wessex Basin We shall the go by car for about 2km to TyNeham Village Car Park (SY 882802). (Honesty Box = £2.00 per car) Toilets available. Tyneham village was commandeered by the War Office in 1940 to provide ranges and a training area. The inhabitants were given short notice (48 hours?) to leave but understood that they could return after the war. They`re still waiting! We shall then walk for about 1km to PoNdfield Cove (SY 871796), stopping briefly at Worbarrow on the way to discuss the overall geology. You will Need to bring your lunch with you. PoNdfield Cove shows the Portland stone lying conformably beneath the Purbeck beds. You should find examples of • Faulting 2 • Fossils • Trace fossils, • Breccia • Ripple marks, • Halite pseudomorphs.

In doing so we are walking forward through time starting from the Purbeck formation which was laid down in coastal and agonal conditions at about 40oN. The change from shallow seas (Portland) to tidal lagoons (Purbeck) is explained by a marine regression. At the end of the Ryazanian, i.e. Purbeck beds, the was a conmsiderable climatic change, from arid conditions to one of high rainfall. This change is marked by the end of the evaporic environment to one of increase clay minerals. The kaolinite content of the clay minerals increases with acidity This increase in acidity is the resultof increased raionfall. Nevertheless the effects of this acidity must have been long term and tempered because there still much evidence of carbonates in the deposits.- This regression continued and resulted in dry land which extensive terrestrial flora and fauna. These are the Wealden Beds which are well displayed at Worbarrow Bay albeit in a very compressed form. You will be able to identify • River deposits • Lake deposits, • Fossil vegetation • Crossbedding 3 • Diagenic changes resulting from ground water • Changes in lithology owing changes in environmental factors. However the terrestrial conditions didn`t last beyond the Aptian when a marine transgression commenced. By the Albian the Gault Clay (deposited in moderately deep, tranquil and probable anoxic environment) and The Lower Greensand (deposited in relatively shallow, high-energy, well oxygenated seas) had been deposited and this is visible at the western end of the beach. Continuing deepening of the seas resulted in the deposit of the Grey Chalk of the Zigzag Fm (W Melbury Fm is missing here) and ultimately the white chalks of the Holywell, New Pit and Lewes Fms capped by the Portsdown Fm at Cow Corner (SY 861804). Unfortunately the upper reaches of the chalk are inaccessible here. We shall then return to Worbarrow (near Worbarrow Tout). If you have sufficient energy and time I recommend walk up Gad Cliff to TyNeham Cap (SY890798). The coastal views are stunning. There are also the Kimmeridge ledges well displayed which forms the anticline important in trapping the oil for the “nodding donkey” near the beach. Pleased keep within the yellow range markers. The village of Tyneham (next to the car park) has been preserved as it was when the inhabitants left in 1940. It is well worth a visit too.

    Wytch Farm Landscape and Access Enhancement Fund The Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is a nationally important protected landscape, with vibrant communities and a wealth of wildlife and heritage. Within the AONB is the largest on-shore oilfield in Europe, at Wytch Farm near Corfe Castle. As part of a planning application to extend the working life of the oilfield by a further 20 years, the oilfield operator, Perenco UK has provided a sum of £1.7 million for landscape, biodiversity and sustainable transport projects to enhance the landscape. This sum is to be used to fund projects that compensate for the environmental impacts of the further retention of the oilfields infrastructure in the landscape. How to Apply If you would like to apply to this fund, please assess your project against the information below to check whether you fulfil the criteria. Applications are to be made on a form downloadable from the Dorset AONB website. What kinds of project can be funded? Projects can be funded which: • Strengthen the character of the surrounding landscape by heathland and acid grassland mosaic creation, conservation, enhancement and management. • Enhance biodiversity by the conservation, enhancement and management of boundary features (hedgerows, veteran trees and earthbanks), woodlands (e.g. through Rhododendron control) and rural lanes. • Improve rights of way and / or facilities for no-car access and conserving tranquillity. Funding is to be targeted to physical works which achieve these aims. Project management time to deliver a practical project can be included within the overall proposal but funds will not be awarded to projects with a disproportionate amount of revenue costs (e.g.

  • South West Coast Path : Weymouth to Lulworth Cove Walk
    Saturday Walkers Club www.walkingclub.org.uk South West Coast Path : Weymouth to Lulworth Cove walk Weymouth Bay, then a dramatic cliff walk past small beaches, then higher cliffs past Durdle Door (stack) to Lulworth Cove Length 11.1 miles / 17.8 km Toughness 8 out of 10 - 2,400 feet / 730m of ascent (lots of small climbs) Features This spectacular coast walk follows the waymarked South West Coastal Path (SWCP) / England Coast Path (ECP) from Weymouth (seaside town with picturesque harbour) along its seafront promenade, then over spectacular cliffs and past secluded coves and beaches towards Durdle Door (stack) and Lulworth Cove. All, with views over Weymouth Bay and the Isle of Portland. The start is gentle - along the seafront then seawall. Then over a small hill (pub, cafe, both with sea views) to Bowleaze Cove with its spectacular art deco hotel. Then past some small beaches to the Smugglers Inn in Osmington for lunch. After lunch the cliff top path continues on past Ringstead and above Burning Cliff beach (the fire went out in in 19th C). It passes St Catherine-by- the-Sea church (nice picnic spot), and then becomes an undulating cliff edge walk (a more level inland option is available) to Durdle Door (a stack, great beach) before descending to Lulworth Cove. Return to Wool Station by bus (summer only) or taxi This walk can also be done in reverse, indeed transport considerations may may that a better option. In this case, take a bus from Wool to Lulworth Cove. At the end, continue along the coast to Weymouth's Historic Harbour area which is much nicer than the tacky seafront next to the train station https://www.walkingclub.org.uk/walk/weymouth-to-lulworth-cove/ 1/6 You hardly need a map for this walk as the SWCP is very well waymarked, and you are just following the coast, but it is useful to check your progress.
